Your post echos a published law, but the reality with which I speak is that the arrest rate for that particular crime is beyond rare.

We cannot know if it is "beyond rare" unless we know how many women are raped.

I haven't studied this in Muslim nations, and I suspect it's difficult in any event, given the stigma rape carries (and the danger of an honour killing).

I do know that in North America, only 1 in 10 rapes are reported to the police.
